As a Baby Boomer, I am realizing more and more that there is a pirate lurking at my door. He loves to steal my time and make me spend oodles of Healthcare! Arrghh! Hey matey, it doesn’t have to be that way. One weapon against the Healthcare Pirate is Healthcare Clinics. Having recently learned about Walgreens Healthcare Clinics, I can give you some tips on the ways a Healthcare clinic can help you make friends with the Healthcare Pirate.

How are you making friends with the Healthcare Pirate?




We have Walgreens near us. It doesn’t have a clinic, but there isn’t one too far. Even the one close by has knowledgeable pharmacy staff that is very nice. I like that the clinics except insurances. That really helps people. Keeping track of your health is important. Take care.
Yes!! Healthcare costs are truly staggering!! Its shocking and almost a crime!! Especially for not an 100% gurantee for a solution!! It can be so frustrating. Im loving that Walgreens is affordable and trying to do whatever they can to help!!
These are all really good tips. My dad had a heart surgery @ cleveland clinic & had an amazing experience there.
Healthcare is expensive for all. It’s great that these take most insurances. They offer longer hours and weekends which is nice because illnesses don’t just happen during the week.
What a relief to get a hold of your healthcare costs and get more time in your life! Pirates be warned! #client
I love everything about walgreens and go there for all my health needs! 🙂
I am eagerly awaiting the opening of a clinic here where I am, it would be ever so useful in this family. There are so many small questions I always have that turn into a $100 ER visit for nothing!
What a great post! I didn’t know about Walgreens’ Clinics before
Cool. They have them in WI! Good to know. Also, love how you have a little pirate-themed look going on with all the gold necklaces and the flowy skirt. How appropriate. – Katy
Very interesting. Not a baby boomer, but seriously gotta decrease the cost of my bills – thank you for sharing!
Any way to save money on health care costs is great. Thanks for sharing. Hope they will add these clinics in MA too.
Sounds like a good resource!
